Other Sukkot notes
Oct. 5th, 2006 09:14 pmSomeone got a clue: I saw strings of little 'holiday' lights for sukkot offered at the Israel Book Shop, in the shape of pomegranates. (Now, if it had been pomegranates interspersed with bells, those I'd have to get.)
Scary kosher food product of the week: lollipops with pictures and words in them, an icon and name of each of the ushpizin. (Would it be problematic to eat these on yom tov, given that the names are in them?)
Every year I say that next year I'll make decorations for the sukkah. This year is no exception.
I didn't think it was that windy today, but my schach is all tossed about; I have to lay it out again. And my sukkah is sheltered from the wind on a couple of sides, too.
I wonder if there are any organic or low-spray etrog growers. I don't know whether there's a lot of pesticides used on etrogim, but I assume the worst absent that information.

If they're cheap, and I had some way of knowing that the etrogim aren't covered in pesticides, that would be a great way of getting enough fruits to do something serious with.)
